A building block exchange strategy for the rational fabrication of de novo unreachable amino-functionalized imine-linked covalent organic frameworks

Abstract

We show a facile building block exchange strategy for the preparation of amino-functionalized imine-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs) due to its great significance for promoting the diverse applications of COFs, which are usually inaccessible via de novo methods. The developed strategy offers a new method for the preparation of de novo unreachable COFs.
